l think ive just fallen out of love with music recently. Nothing new out there inspires me. I quite liked The Rifles, lve listened to The Spitfires two albums, but he sounds too much like an angry young Weller. No decent new ska bands. Buster Shuffle are alright, but just cant find anything worth shouting about anymore.

Buster Shuffle have a new album out next week if your interested, I pre ordered CD from HMV yesterday and added a Island Ska compilation CD to qualify for free delivery (Buster Shuffle CD is £9.99 - 1p short of free delivery), worked out only pennies more than just ordering the Buster Shuffle CD from anywhere else (including from the bands store) when delivery is added._________________Bernie Rhodes Knows - Dont Argue

All of the latest studies (Spotify etc) show that the majority of us stop listening to new music at about age 33.

I would be in this category.

Have about 20-25 bands on rotation and rarely if ever stray outside of them.

Boring I know.

But Fester, what about Harry Stiles and Ed Sheeran? they're new ish music surely !_________________Naked from your bath, you go naked to your bed, but i cant stop the hatred running through my...... f * * k i n g .. head.

I have to commend anyone who can listen to any of the modern ska bands. Any I have heard, and that's a lot, are simply playing ska by numbers. Childish repetitive nonsense basically. The only ska bands of the modern era I have ever rated and actually bought their albums are Hepcat and Intensified._________________Richard Eddington is innocent.

"Ska by numbers" - a kind way of saying SHITE. I agree- they have a sort of American high school/ college sound.
It almost like it lacks human input.
I for one will not apologise for not listening to new music - i rarely hear anything interesting, its all anonymous music - not attributable to any one artist could one of a number of unlistenable acts._________________Naked from your bath, you go naked to your bed, but i cant stop the hatred running through my...... f * * k i n g .. head.

I think when the phrase 'what's left of the band' is used then time is well and truly up on the whole venture._________________Richard Eddington is innocent.
